TRUWOMEN protein bars - simple,rich in nurtitional values ingredients:

• CASSAVA FLOUR; Low-Glycemic, Gluten-Free Superfood; a dietary staple in many parts of the world, cassava flour is made from the yuca root vegetable, peeled, dried, and ground into a fine powder. Made from the same plant as tapioca, with less processing and more vitamin C, the grain- and gluten-free, easy-to-digest flour gives our bars their full-bodied taste and soft texture.

Vegan proteins 

• BROWN RICE PROTEIN; Provides all essential amino acids. Our brown rice protein comes from Oryzatein®, the first patented allergen-friendly protein source. This organic, Plant Fueled™ protein selection ensures our bars have zero trace of the chalky flavor or grainy texture that tends to take the fun and flavor out of healthy food. Bonus: because our bodies are keen to process this protein, this smooth flavor is also easy to digest.

• PEA PROTEIN; Dairy-free, complete protein; This complete protein allows our powders to remain Plant Fueled™. When paired with water or milk, the pea protein, which is derived from split peas, allows our powders to take on the creamy, frothy profile that makes our shakes so deliciously unique.

Cocoas

• FAIR TRADE UNSWEETENED CHOCOLATE Rich, smooth, and sustainably farmed Made from the whole ground bean, our unsweetened chocolate is simply a mixture of cocoa solids and cocoa butter. This bold chocolate helps us to craft deliciously flavored compositions.

• COCOA POWDER Full of antioxidants and rich, chocolate flavor Our cocoa powder is made by roasting, drying, pressing and grinding cocoa beans into a powder. This sustainably-sourced powder draws out the dynamic flavor profiles of nutty chocolate and mouthwatering fudge.

• COCOA BUTTER Smooth texture enhances flavor To create our signature cocoa butter, we take cocoa liquor and press it at high levels to extract a natural oil. In addition to its velvety texture, this sweet and delicate butter works to embolden other flavors.

For natural flavoring

• LEMON PEEL Tart, citrusy flavor boost Lemon powder is made by drying and milling the peel of a lemon.

• CITRIC ACID Similar to lemon powder, citric acid evokes the citrusy and tart flavors of lemon.

• SEA SALT Authentic & minimally processed Sea Salt is crystalline granular salt used to season and enhance flavors.

• SPICES AND NATURAL FLAVORS Flavors extracted from spice, fruit or fruit juice.

Healthy fats and nuts 

• ROASTED ALMONDS, ROASTED CASHEWS, RAW PEANUTS Nutritious and heart-healthy Full of nutrients, including essential fatty acids, our nut butters reveal the rich, buttery and nutty flavor composition of the nuts themselves.

• FLAXSEED Great source of essential fatty acids Flaxseeds are one of the oldest fiber crops. We use flaxseeds to provide a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein and fiber, creating the perfect balance of flavor and nutrition.

• FAIR TRADE PALM OIL, SUNFLOWER OIL AND LECITHIN Cholesterol-free, trans fat-free, and sustainably sourced Harvested from Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) approved sustainable sources, our palm oil is an oil extracted from palm fruit and is also a trans fat-free healthier alternative. Sunflower oil and lecithin are created from the seeds of sunflowers. These binding agents help our bars achieve a matchless, melt-in-your mouth texture.

Sweeteners - only natural and no polyols

• STEVIA EXTRACT Calorie-free sweetener Stevia Extract and Rebaudioside A: All-natural sweeteners made from the leaves of the stevia plant. This calorie-free flavor enhancer reduces any notes of bitterness, balancing ingredient flavor profiles.

• ORGANIC CANE SUGAR Made from organically-grown, pesticide-free sugarcane Cane sugar is solidified liquid extracted from pure sugarcane. This sweetener selection is minimally processed, maintaining the full-bodied, irresistible taste of sugarcane. Best taste, cleanest option, keeping it low in sugar.

• INULINA nutritious sweetener found in a wide-variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs. This dietary fiber boosts digestion, helping to keep you fuller longer.

TRUWOMEN - mission behind

We love real food that tastes great. We call ourselves TRUWOMEN because our products, our team and the way we run our company are all about powering women and creating the world we want to see!

We asked women what they want in a healthy snack bar. Here’s what we heard: GREAT TASTE, real ingredients, just enough protein, and no bloat-causing sugar alcohols. Then we got to work. Designed with taste first, our products are made entirely with real, nutritious, plant fueled ingredients. Our bars include at least 12 grams of protein and are vegan, dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free, non-GMO and kosher. Everything is made with love by a family-owned company in Boulder, Colorado.

We built TRUWOMEN committing to prioritizing female leaders, ensuring equal pay and having an inclusive environment. We partner with female led vendors, focusing our business spend on creating opportunity for more women. 

Our manufacturing facility is run by two families, wife and husband duos; our product is packed by Women’s Bean Project, who hire victims of domestic violence and chronically impoverished women. All of our agencies, from lawyers to ad studios to PR, are committed to female leadership and equality. These are real examples of how we are prioritizing women through TRUWOMEN…and we’re just getting started.

We built our company, hiring women in most of the leadership positions and committing to pay equity across the board. We focus every dollar the company spends on vendors that are female founded, female owned, or teams where women are equally represented. And beyond that, we ask these vendors to elevate the women in their organizations or risk losing our business to a vendor that does.

This is much more than a protein bar. It’s a movement to change culture and business practices. It is amazing to be a part of and we can’t wait to help it grow.
